Denim cutoffs, here is your other half. Byrdie tells us that bloomers are exactly what they look like, regular shorts with a lot of ruffles and fluff on them, which we really thought was the only attire we wore them in bed, are making a high-fashion comeback. The breeziest It-girl essential of this summer is already ready-made by turning some heads on fashion icons, including Emma Chamberlain and Hailey Bieber.
Also, part sexy, part practical, bloomers are the unexpected savior of Summer 2025. Wear these ballooning shorts with brunch in London or beach-hopping in Miami, and you’ll get loungewear with a romantic tag added.
The reason to wear bloomers is here, and here are a few ways to wear them without looking like you belong in high school history.
Why Bloomers form the Shorts of the Season
It is all about comfort and edification. Bloomers have a casual, artlessly unbuttoned feel about them — easy lines, elasticated waists, and breezy cottons or linens. Imagine the comfort of pajamas dressed to the streetwear perfection. Their matching is equally appropriate with a bikini top as much as it is in a tailored blazer. And yes, they are gold on Instagram.
5 Fashionable Ideas on How to Wear Bloomers in 2025
1. More Bloomers + Tank Fitted + Slides
Be the statement of your bloomers. Adorn a pair of ruffles in a fitted white tank and simple slides. Perfect in Toronto farmers markets or the stroll in the old part of the city of Lisbon.
2. Bloomers + Oversized Blazer + Ballet Flats
Even a small contrast is a lot. Fill it out with a slouched blazer and counter the bulk with dainty ballet flats – ideal over a cafe break in pairs.
3. Button-Up Shirt + Lace-Trim Bloomers
Bump up your off-duty style: Choose lace-trimmed bloomers and an oversized button-up with a half-tuck. Match with loafers or espadrilles to do the coast.
4. Bloomer Set
Match the puff sleeve top or corset with coordinated bloomers, which makes a simple and photo-worthy look for brunch, picnics, or fashion looks.
5. Bloomers Bikini top sheer dress overlay
Beach, only do it layered: beneath a tunic or sheer dress, wear bloomers and a bikini top and bucket hat. It is the warmest layering for play.
